Front brakes. BIG red caliper with THICK disc
Had to remove the heat shield to make room for the front disc.

Close up of 18" Carlsson 2/5 Brilliant Edition rims. Had to choose the rims after the brakes, fitted perfectly!

It's a 230 kompressor -01

I'm the MOV'IT dealer in Scandinavia and the price for the whole kit (front and rear) is 4750 EUR ($5500) Netto.

Where are you at? Can recommend you a dealer

Probably not this year, have to buy new rims, tires and modify the engine before I try it on the tracks

$5,500 USD plus tax

Either Kleemann or Kicherer/AMG boster kit. Then Supersprints mainfolder and maybe Väth intercooler then I should have aprox. 250-260 HP.

I'm curious to know what the Kleemann or Kicherer kits do that others don't. I've never seen or heard of an SLK230 that would break 250hp without either a displacement increase, larger supercharger, or addition of a turbo.
